About Katrina Wood
Hello, it’s Dr. Katrina Wood. I’m a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles and now a blogger.
I work as director of Wilshire Valley Therapy Centers in Los Angeles and Encino. I also host the weekly talk show “The Resurrection of Love” on BlogTalk Radio. My latest self-help book, “That’s Not Love! This Is” is now available on Amazon.com.
I’m excited about expanding into the world of blogging — there are so many new, important and innovative things going on in the world of psychology today.
One goal of the “Shink Central” blog is to help you relate to the practice of mental health as a necessary part of our wellness. This can be critical to our day-to-day approach to life as well as our long-term views of ourselves and the world around us.
So many people today suffer from depression and anxiety. Many are unsure how to cope each day and find relief from these debilitating illnesses.
This blog will show you ways to approach and understand certain illnesses in ways that may bring relief. Along the way, I’ll point you to helpful links and resources.
You’ll also benefit from my network of colleagues, whose journals specialize in a variety of approaches to mental health. Just click on the topics that interest you and dive in. Some of these experts also show up on my weekly psychology talk show.
I’m committed to exploring cutting-edge approaches to mental health while respecting and utilizing the foundational tenents and approaches from the past.
Please note that this blog discusses psychotherapy-related issues in a general way. If any of these topics resonate with you, I urge you to address them via your personal-growth support system. Some of the problems I write about are best handled by professional mental health providers.
The seminal works in psychotherapy pave the way for newer and perhaps more effective ways of looking at our lives — the way we think and feel as unique and essential human beings.
